Why won't the battery calibrate after purchase?

I'm not sure what you are expecting by calibration, but it should be able to charge completely plugged in, and then used unplugged till it draws battery down to 10 I'm not sure what you are expecting in the way of calibration. But you need to charge battery till it shows 100% and then use the laptop or leave it unplugged until the battery drains to 10%. They recommend this 2 or 3 times before using. I have had good luck with this battery and have used unplugged for as many as 7 hours. Times depend on laptop settings such as screen brightness, dvd usage, etc. If you are still having an issue perhaps you received a bad battery and need to talk to manufacturer, or place you purchased, and also make sure your laptop is showing that the battery is indeed charging. Best of luck

Hmm, good question. I wonder if the connection to the battery is bad? Maybe it was connected for the first 14 hours and then got jarred loose somehow? I would probably take the battery out and put it back in, making sure that the contacts seem to be clean and touching. If that doesn't do anything, I would call a local battery store and see if they have any way of testing the battery to see if it is good. If there is nothing obvious wrong with the battery, I would probably call the company that installed the unit and see if they have any suggestions. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I had the same problem and had to return the battery. I went and purchased a whole new unit. Careful if you order a battery because if you have to return it, Amazon doesn't let you because it is a hazardous item. I went through a lot trying to return it to the vendor. The one I received was also broken. Good luck.

Mine wasn't easy to calibrate. You need to press a button on the back and go around a block - - - a complete 360 degree turn. You may have to do this several times to get it to be reasonably accurate. Good luck.

I am having the same problem, even brought a new battery and it still does not come on. Warranty is up, so what can I do.

Sir, check in the manual if the machine has calibration features. Check for the cables and accessories as well..

Calibrate it with a 7.0 calibration solution. I also recommend storing it in their storage solution. Be sure to read the manual or you may make incorrect assumptions about certain things.

i belive, you did everything correctly. It is something worng to the battery. Try to recharge again, just charge it whole night and try again. If problem is not resolved, just send it back, if its possible

Try flipping the battery over and charge it "upside-down". I had to write to the seller at first because my battery wouldn't initially charge.

I have had the same problem. I brought it to best Buy and they said I probably need a new battery, but they dont sell them. You have to purchase directly from the manufacturer. Havent done it yet, but I am about to now

I do not use the battery and only calibrated when I got it. I unplug it plenty and have never had to re calibrate.

I had the same problem. I went to another site and got a better battery for half the price. Still no response about my refund. Good luck

You may want to contact the seller. I didnt have such issues. You may have already done this, but to double check unplug the power cord just to make sure the battery is working.

Did you recalibrate the battery after installing the new ones? According to the manual, this needs to be done. If not, go to their website and read-up on how to do that procedure.
